david_b said...: Ah, milking internet sympathy I see.

Cracks in the Coolness, sir.

Anywho, glad to see you're back.; November 5, 2012 at 10:49 AM
Kal said...: Oh yeh, I was milking it. I didn't even read the messages until tomorrow. Am I really so pathetic to you? Let the wound heal for a day before you judge my character like am the ONLY person ever to see people reply to some personal message from me. Yeh, I was hurting and it's so nice to know that I am equally resented for coming back as for leaving. Really...TOO SOON; November 5, 2012 at 11:20 AM
david_b said...: No, sir. It's like Woody Allen's line about Atheism..:

"To you I'm an atheist; to God, I'm the Loyal Opposition."

No sir, to answer your question, I ONLY expect Coolness from the Cave. I'm typically not disappointed.

Have a productive day, sir.; November 5, 2012 at 11:35 AM
david_b said...: Glad you're back.

We all need our fix of Canadian Cave Coolness as only you as our humble host can provide..; November 5, 2012 at 11:47 AM
DrGoat said...: I knew you weren't dead. I didn't see you in the Day of the Dead procession last nite. Glad you got through that, 'cause you need to be around for the next time life decides you're not depressed enough. I've got a lot of personal experience with that. And david_b is just being a good buddy and keeping you on your toes, I think. I was born and raised by skeptics and cynical people. I like to be skewered occasionally, as long as there is no physical pain involved.
PS, Glad as hell you're back.; November 5, 2012 at 1:16 PM
david_b said...: Yep, as I tell my troops after a long roadmarch..

"You're not burnin' out, you're warming up."

It's all good, kind sir.; November 5, 2012 at 1:27 PM
Kal said...: Sorry for snapping. When I wind up I usually have to hope to run down before I find my equilibrium again. Still a bit tender from my fire.; November 5, 2012 at 4:35 PM
Nick Ward said...: Sweet Jebsus you are back with a fucking vengeance and I fucking LOVE it. Welcome back you fearsome blogger all is right with the world again! We have a saying here in New Zealand - Kia kaha.

Kia kaha Cave of Cool. Kia kaha!; November 5, 2012 at 7:01 PM

Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto

I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.

I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.

I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.

And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.

So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.

Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.

This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.
